FROM THE VATICAN.
The POPE Gives an Audience to Anne.
ricans in Rome.

ROME. March 26.-An audience 20 American
visitors was given at the Vatican to-day. Up
ward Of fifty Americans Qadies and gentlemen
assembled in the hall adorned with ancient
tapestry picturing miracles Of Christ; whence
they were ushered into the thrOne-room. whore
the softened light penetrated two great win
dows. When the Pope's presence in an adIoin-
ing room was known all knelt, and the guards
held their swords at n salute while the Pope,
who wore a white soutane and crimson cloak.
slowly approached. Entering the throne
room the Pope said I'VE come TO welcome
these good Americans" He then seated him
self In chair In front Of the throne. and cush-
ions were placed at his feet Bishops Ireland,
Watterson, ard Keane, and Rector O'Connell
were the first TO approach. In his conversation
with the Bishops the Pope expressed great
pleasure at the progress made by the Church
In America. lie was concerned about the sue
cess Of the new University, and feat the neces-
siiy Of having such University In the United
States.
Regarding the new American College In
Rome, he hoped IL would DO worthy OF the
growth Of CsthOlicity in the United States.
The rector stating that the college would con-
tain at least two hundred rooms, tho Pope ex-
pressed surprise. lie said that such a building
would cost much money, and that this was n
hopeful sign of Catholic growth in America.
The Bishops then presented the other visitors.
each OF whom knelt and kissed the papal ring,
the Pope addressing a foU gracious words to
each. Among those presented was the Associ.
ated- Press correspondent. The Pope held the
journalists hand IN both Of his, talking to him
rapidly IN Italian. The Pope looked his age,
but his active, keen, brilliant eye and sono-
rous, slow speech, are always searching and

yt,ue Hoe Dnvis,s Grave.
JAZZ IN II IN IWINWN ~ ~ T
riyr6E's OFFICE, g5& MAIN STREET,

Little Joe Davis, son of eX-President
Davis. died in this city during the late
var from the effects of fall, and is
buried in Hollywood. A simple monu-
Inent marks bis grave. A movement
has been started here to mound
mp the grave, put the section
in good order. and keep IT 50
perpetually. Surely there should be
no difficulty in collecting the funds
necessary for the purpose. The cost OF
embellisbing the section and fixing the
grave would be comparatively slight,
while the interest on "a very small sum
well invested would secure attention to
both Grave and section for tue future.
II is proposed that the money re-
quired shall be raised in part by
contributions from children, and the
suggestion is very proper and happy
one. A prominent physician Of the
city, who has interested himself IN the
matter even 10 the extent Of having
plans for the improvement OF the sec
ton prepared and OF planting flowers
about the grave with his own hands,
remarked the other day that the re-
mains Of Little Joe were legacy to
Richmond that should he sacredly
guarded What could be more appro-
pirate than that the children OF this
beautiful city should he the guardians ?

4 Card from Mr.. Parr in Reply TO
CANAAN EDDs.

The card of Captain Epps in your
issue Of the 2Gth instant unexplained
would create upon the mind of the pub
lie very much the same belief that is
uron the mind of Captain Epps-that
is, that / was not robbed, but that ]
lost my money on Sunday night last in
GENE of cards. The conversation did
take place between Captain Epps and
myself substantially as it is related i'll
the card of Captain Epps, and l did
deny at first having played cards on the
Sunday previous ThisI did for two rea-
SONS; the first was, that | did not care
to be duplicating others, and the second
was that, knowing so well how and when
! was robbed, [ could see no good that
could result from my telling Captain
Epps That l had been playing cards.
Captain Epps says that he can prove by
one party that lost to him between T.
and 2 o'clock on Sunday night between
$40 and $4j. | think his informant is
mistaken as to the hour, for | am very
certain that | stopped playing and was
at home long before 2 o'clock. Now,
as TO my losing between $40 and So.
That is very easy of explanation. When
/ LETT home on last Sunday / carried
with me $50. first played in game
of poker, which lasted until in the
neighborhood OF 9 o'clock p. NJ. In
this game stopped S27 winner. Then
! played in another game composed OF
different parties When / started in
this game | had $j7. When quit /
had @l2, thus having lost in this last
game CT poker $45; but $27 Of that
amount was winnings, and 2lS was n
pant of the original $50 | left home
with in the morning.
1 make this statement in order that
The public may see that whilst Captain
Tpps is substantially correct in what
he SAYS about the amount lost, yet his
statement would do me gross injustice
unexplained. 1t is not my desire to
unnecessarily expose any person, and
for this reason refrain from giving the
names of the parties with whom l was
PLAYING, but | will furnish to Captain
Epps the name of every gentleman i'll
both games, so he may see them for
himself and satisfy himself Of the truth
fulness of every word herein.

(By Anglo-American cablo TO the Dispatch
LONDON, March 26.-The annual
boat-race between the crews Of Oxford
and Cambridge universities took place
day over the usual course on the
Thames from Pntney to Mortlake, and
Was won by the Cambridge crew. The
wind was fresh and the water lumpy.
Tie betting just before the start was
fifteen to eight in favor of Cambridge.
When the signal for the race was given
the Cambridge crew at once took the
lead. rowing with slightly more rapid
stroke than that of their opponents.
At Rarnes's bridge, three miles and five
furlonos from the start, the Cambridge
boat was leading by length and half.
After passing the bridge the Oxford
crew broke an oar. That secured the
race for the Cambridge men, and they
Won easily by three lengths The race
was fine contest as far as Barnes's
bridge, being strongly contested every
inch mp to this point. The Oxford
crew pulled better together than their
opponents did, and it is agreed on all
hands that the distance they lost before
they broke an oar was lost by bad steer
ing entirely. The time Of the Cam
bridge crew was 20 minutes 80 seconds.
Distance, four miles and two furiongs.

The Brickiaycrs' Union OF Rich
mOnd.

10 the EditOr OF the Dispatch:
VIII you kindly grantus space enough
in your columns to correct statement
made in them in regard to the brick
layers Of Richmond? The way that we
were advertised has left the public I'M
der the impression that we work eccTV
doy in the ycar( Sundays excepteD and
receive four dollars per day. We
do not average more than seuen
months work during the year.
Then again, we have been misrepre-
seuted in regard to our prices.
All of MS do not receive four dollars per
day, but are rated from tpO dollars
and ffty 20 four dOitdrS per day, about
one half of our men being rated at less
than four dollars. The contractors
claim that the prices they receive for
their work do not Justify them in pay
ing us our prices. When they were
getting 80, $40, and 80. 50per thousand
for laying bricks they were paying us
1925 and $3.50 per day for the best
hands. Now they are receiving
from $13 to SO per thousand. Who
is getting the benefit OF tins advance IN
their prices i? The contractors North
get the same prices for laying bricks
that our contractors do, and yet pay
their hands from $3.50 to 81 per day
for their work. We would say that
there never has been any strike OF the
bricklayers of Richmond The strike
that occurred last year was with the
'hod- carriers.
We take occasion to say that every
time the bricklayers ask an advance IN
pay they are advertised by the con-
tractors in the papers, but when the
contractors add on fifty cents or dol
lar q thousand the public never hears OF
il. II the contractors are so aggrieved
and cannot make a living at the bust
ness, would it not be well to step aside
and let Others do the work 1t is only
in Justice to ourselves that we have
asked You to make this correction, and
thanking you most cordially for this
and oil other courtesies, We are very
respectfully,
TIE BnIcKLAYERs OF RICHMOND.

Secretary Manning's Successor aud
the TTeaSUrership.
by Telegraph TO Tho Dispatcl


WASHINGTON. March 26.--It is now
regarded as settled that Assistant
Secretary Fairchild will succeed Mr..
Manning as Secretary Of the Treasury,
and that his appointment will be Off
cially announced the Latter part of next
week. Solicitor McCue and Comp
toller Maynard are spoken of as the
possible successors of Mr.. Fairchild as
Assistant Secretary. The former, how
ever, is said to prefer the new circuit
judgeship in New York city, and the
latter is understood to prefer his pres
cnt position. Third-Auditor Williams
and Chiei-Clerk Youmans are also said
to be asrirants to the assistant-secre-
tarysbip.
Nothing has yet been settled in re-
gard to the treasuryship. JordAn's re-
signation has not yet been accepted,
and. while he requested the President
to relieve him of the duties and re-
sponsibilities of the Office about the Sd
Of April, it is thought that he would
consent TO retain the position awhile
longer, if the President so desired.
The chances are, however, that the
President will be able to select his sue
cessor before the date specified by Jor-
dan. 1t is said that the President de-
sires to select the new Treasurer from
the West.

The oyster-sloop Sadie Bell, owned

captured yesterday for illegal dredging
within the Virginia waters of the POGO
moke sound. The crew, consisting of
Martin Chosen. Captain Harry Miller,
Marcus Downing, Theodore Noting
ham, and William Woods have been
committed to Accomack Jail. OF late
much complaint has been made about
the violation of the oyster law, the
present oyster police force being con-
sidered too small to keep the pirates
out of the waters of the State.
